Most of our towns and cities (even cities in Manila) are not well designed resulting into non-functional communities. This maybe because many of our planners or planning committees are non-functional as well.
i have data about our province but would like to see if the same is also observed in other provinces as well. This may require national-level solution, the reason why i like to investigate. I need co-researchers from other provinces of the Philippines to validate my observation.
I'm pretty sure there are universities and other research institutes that are doing these efforts. Start by visiting the websites of the large and known universities, peek through the list of research departments, and then find your contacts.
